You must be quoting someone else. Don’t recall ever referring to myself as a “leader.” Just one man with a key board posting my opinion and standing up for my liberty.

Understand that some of my takeaway from your message was colored by my own perception. I view you as a leader of a fiercely and passionately conservative faction -- and a somewhat sizable one at that. Not because you are the forum owner, there are plenty of forum owners... no, it is because you've stayed true to your principles.

And no, I don't recall you calling yourself a leader, but remember, that was my takeaway message only, and not your direct quote.

And ya, you're a leader. You might not necessarily embrace the concept, but sometimes leadership is thrust upon those who don't necessarily seek it. ;)

That’s pretty much how I’ve regarded you all these years. One man, his website, and he sometimes jumps in with his opinions.

I suppose it is just natural for people to seek out some kind of shepherd to lead them. Seems lazy to me though.

Leaders don't always start out intending to lead.

Sometimes, they turn around and look back to see that they acquired followers.
